Mountain Description
|
|
|
Beinn a' Chaisteil lies to the E of Am Faochagach (Munro) across Loch Vaich. It is the larger and more northerly of two tops on a long ridge running N-S. The second top Meall a' Ghrianain is attached via a 650m col. Beinn a' Chaisteil is a big grassy hill but with some steepish slopes particularly on its E flank. The approach road through Strath Vaich continues N on the E shore of Loch Vaich and takes you to Carn Crom-loch (648m) the N end of Beinn a' Chaisteil's long ridge. This hill should be taken as a ridge walk
